Go to the "Wireless" tab. Start looking at the various subtabs. If you find one labeled "Wireless Security", go there. Otherwise, just start looking through the settings on the various subtabs until you find something like:

encryption WEP , or encryption WPA .

Nearby, you will see a "password", "passphrase", and/or "key"

For WEP, enter WEP "key 1" into your computer, not the WEP password or passphrase.

For WPA, enter the key (sometimes called password or passphrase) into your computer.

You can access the set up for the router and find out the security key. All you have to do is log on to set up page using http://routerip use the password as "admin" and check Wireless tab and then Wireless Security sub tab to find the network key.

If that site requires a security (WPA/WEP) key, that means that it is secured. You need to ask the router's owner or the administrator of the wireless network for the password in order to connect to it.

hi. yes you can retrieve your router's WEP/WPA key. It would be better if you use a computer connected to the router for easier access.. however if there is none you can connect your laptop to the router using an ethernet cable. or use a laptop that is connected to the network and has internet access .

My 1st piece of advice to give to you is to switch from WEP to WPA2, because WEP is pretty easy to crack according to numerous websites and people.

As for where to find the key, go into your web browser and type in 192.168.1.1 (the default password is "admin" if you haven't changed it (which you should)). Then go to Wireless-->wireless security. That is where you will find it and be able to utilize my first piece of advice
